Last time we went here the service was much better. Still like Alamo and iPic a little more but it is cool to have this place as an option.

This is one of my favorite theaters in Austin. The staff are friendly and expedient, the food is spectacularly, and the seats are perfect. This theater not only runs the standard new releases, but also shows indie and foreign productions as well.

Wow, why have I never been here before? Awesome craft cocktails, particularly the Corpse Bride with genever and plethora of other liqueurs and herbs. Others have commented that the drinks are expensive, but I think they are on par with craft cocktails at other high end bars in downtown ($9-$12). They also offer super sized cocktails to last through the movie LOL. For food, we ordered watermelon salad, Brussel sprouts, and a Mediterranean plate. The sprouts are worth a trip here alone. Crunchy, bitter, sweet, salty, nutty. ... read more

If you would enjoy a refreshing film watching experience, then here is the place for you. Intimate and tucked away on 2nd street, this rare gem of a theater is one of the best kept secrets in Austin. We watched the Amy Winehouse film and thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Great staff and service.

I often attend movies at the Violet Crown that I have never heard of and no one I know has seen. Their curation is so spectacular , the film is almost always excellent, entertaining and thought provoking . The intimidate theatre, great food and bar selections make it a terrific choice. You usually must buy your tickets at home on their website as the theatre is so small, it will likely be sold out.

Absolute best theater in town. Clean, small, great food, great staff, interesting films, etc. Its too bad that other theaters don't work to get to this level. I love this place!

The BEST movie theater I have ever been to! There is a balcony overlooking the city square below, free parking, a spacious area to eat and relax, craft cocktails, very good food, excellent (!!) staff, and the chairs are huge and they recline! Plan your trip in advance as tickets sell out and the theaters are small! There is also assigned seating - at least for the theater I was it!

Ask for Odin in the restaurant / bar. Excellent service. He made sure I wasn't double-charged for a drink AND watched to make sure we got into our movie on time.
